“With a tough Pixar comparison to Cars [Ratatouille] and new competition from Nintendo’s first-party titles – as well as new music games – our traditionally strong kids’ business did not meet expectations.” – Brian Farrell, THQ President/CEO

Although I do agree Nintendo may have caused THQ to lose out a bit on sales, THQ did not exactly release many titles that match Nintendo’s quality and polish of their games. On the other hand, it has been proven that sometimes, even if excellent titles are released into the market, the sales will not always be fantastic.

With the Nintendo Channel launching today, an information video about WiiWare seems to have slipped a few games that will be releasing on WiiWare this coming Monday. The video shows clips of the following games:

– Dr. Mario Online RX
– Lost Winds
– Defend Your Castle
– Critter Round-Up
– Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King

The channel also revealed that Dr. Mario will cost Wii owners a whopping 1000 Wii points. It is not known whether or not additional games will be available for launch, but it’s great to see a confirmation of Lost Winds appearing on day one.

Well, I have a question for you guys who are interested – which series would you be interested seeing in 3D? I could still do Metroid if it is requested, but I thought that some of you may be excited to see something else. 3D is actually something I’ve started to find enjoyment in, so I am planning on making images on a fairly regular basis. Anyway, before I ramble on too long, let me know what you wish to see in the future by commenting, emailing, or any other way you feel is appropriate.
